Artificial intelligence is already bringing back the stars of Hollywood's Golden Age and terrifying Nicolas Cage. Now it's infiltrated the Big Brother house.
For season 26 of the CBS reality competition series, producers have chosen the theme of AI…though they'll be calling it "BB AI."
In the video above and the photos below, Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive first look at two rooms and the backyard ahead of next Wednesday's premiere.

"When the prompt was given to create the Have-Not Room, BB AI crashed and left only a wireframe skeleton bedroom," reads CBS' release.

"Create a futuristic bedroom for the year 2500, fit for five Houseguests" was the prompt for this front bedroom, CBS says.
